CAVING IN (marshall with kane
2002)

Now
falling through the cracksThe space that
time neglectsSeeping through
the undergroundAn ever thinning
pathEntrance to
a timeless voidThe caverns
formed belowA creeping journey
in the darkWhere ageless
creatures grow

Sunlight hasn't
touched this place inTens of thousands
of yearsDarkness hides
the shapes that formAs endless trop
lets fall like tearsTucked away
below the surfaceTimeless space
aboundsChange occurs
at various ratesA never ending
now

In the cave
I'm caving inA place that
time forgotIn the cave
I'm caving inA never ending
now

RIVULETS (kane '80's)

There was a
timeThe slathered
phallusBuried deepIn furrowed
palacePlaying roughBut not with
maliceLove enoughTo fill a challis

Deep within
the sacred grottoSinging songs
of ancient blottoLimp love pools
from heated climaxThe plane awaits
upon the tarmac

DOWN BELOW (kane 1985 ?)

Down Below
Where Secrets StowMy Mind Turns
Like A DiscGears Are Grinding,
Tape UnwindingPreparing For
The Risk

Time Has Come,
The Season's DoneThe Leaves That
Fell Are DeadThe Ropes That
Bind Me, Are Behind MeThe Noose Is
Off My Head

I Stood And
Stared And Gawked AghastAs I Was Ripped
From My Dead PastIts True They
Say The Past Is DeadBut It Will
Never Leave Your Head

No Matter Where
You'll Ever GoThe Things You've
Done Are Yours To Know

VACUUM HEAD (kane 1987?)

The Music Drips
DownThrough A Crack
In The StreetBathing All
Those Who TravelIn Subterranean
BywaysForming Stagnant
PoolsOf Myriad FoolsNeither Realistic,
Nor Animalistic

Valves Held
OpenTo The FlowI'm A Vacuum
HeadSuction And
Cold

Our Lives Are
Like Patchwork QuiltsBeach Houses
Built On Wooden StiltsTurntables Made
With Rubber bandsClocks Telling
Time Without Any HandsNewspapers Without
Any WordsJust Pictures
Of Guns And BirdsSpace Shuttles
And Cherry CokeThe Whole Thing's
Just A Really Bad Joke

Can You Tell
That The LettersCan't Fall Off
Of The PageBut Often Appear
To Do Just ThatInterruption
Of Mind My Brain Is CheeseA Toasted Bagel
With A SchmearNugget Mania
Makes Me Insania

SMOKING CAR (kane '80's)

The Naked Lunch
Upon My PlateMakes Me Think
Of What I've AteWhen Times Were
ToughAnd Things Got
BlueI Had Oatmeal
And Pebble StewThe Water From
My Kitchen TapWas Brown And
Cloudy Filled With Sap

Furtive GlancesPierce The Death
Dark DoorwaysSeeking Out
Figures In Gloomy NightPinpoint EyesAs Red As Rats
Blood

The Clothes
I Wore, Upon My BackWere Nothing
More Than Old Hemp SacksBut None Of
This Is True, You SeeIts All Made
Up Of FantasyWhen I Was Young,
I Will Not BoastI Had The Things
I Needed Most

Riding Trains
All Through The NightPast The City's
Sparkling LightsEmpty Seats
Where No one SitsCigarettes And
Coughing FitsTraveling From
Near To FarSitting In The
Smoking Car

Street Lights
FlickerAnd Sputter
In The NightAs All The Homes
Are Locked Up TightAnd The Timid
Stay In BedFor A Fear Of
What May Be LurkingIn The Death

TIES
( 1997 KANE / MARSHALL

As I slip from
dark to deep
Shave my head when I’m asleep
Never think to change disguise
Would make the truth from lies
Seems if nothing’s ever spoken
Who’s to know if something’s broken
Even when we have some doubt
We always try to work it out
But do you even want it fixed
Or has it just been eighty sixed
And what a sad, and selfish game
To give the joy, and hide the pain

CHORUS:
The ties
That bind
Together
Are slowly wearing through
Tangled
Neglected
Forgotten
And you know I never knew

What is happy, do you know
Think you felt it at the show
Is it something you create
Or caused by something that you ate
Did you ever feel that way
I don’t know, it’s hard to say
But you’re sure it’s gone away
I don’t think that I should stay

CHORUS: (Same as above Twice)

TALK TO
THE HAND
( 1997 KANE / MARSHALL )

Listen here and listen now
This is a message to show you how
The meaning should be clear
Your face, your voice: Disappear
Seek and you shall find
It should be clear inside your mind
I think you understand
The time to act is now

CHORUS:
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Just talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Just talk to the hand
You gotta talk to the hand

Your talking head it rambles on
You’re still going, but I’m half gone
What’s in the silence that you fear
That keeps you ringing in my ear
Your voice boring through my head
Not half done, but I’m half dead
In the beginning you’re entrance was grand
Now there’s the exit...

CHORUS:

Now talk to the hand
Just talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
You gotta talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
TALK TO THE HAND !

BREAK

Now talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Just talk to the hand
You gotta talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
You gotta talk to the hand
Talk to the hand

Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
You gotta talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Just talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
Talk to the hand
JUST TALK TO THE HAND !

What did you do
When you found them all gone ?

What did you first do
When you found them all gone ?
